FAQs

What is ASICS GEL technology?

ASICS GEL technology consists of silicone-based material strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock and provide exceptional cushioning, reducing impact on your feet during movement.

How does the TRUSSTIC support system work?

The TRUSSTIC support system is a lightweight component positioned under the arch of the shoe that provides stability and reduces the weight of the sole unit while retaining the structural integrity of the shoe.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 is designed for both performance running and all-day casual wear, offering a blend of comfort, stability, and a distinctive aesthetic.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper construction combines breathable mesh with synthetic material (noted as leather in the product description) to ensure adequate ventilation and durability.

How do I determine my correct size?

It is recommended to try on shoes to ensure the best fit. Your toes should have a thumb's width of space from the end of the shoe, and the heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can I machine wash my ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoes. Hand wash with mild soap and air dry instead.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have the correct size. Adjust lacing tension; try different lacing methods to customize fit around the arch or forefoot.

Foot discomfort or rubbing

Verify sock type and thickness. Ensure the shoes are properly broken in. If discomfort persists, consult a specialist for fit advice or consider insoles.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

Cushioning materials can compress with extended use. The lifespan of running shoes typically ranges from 300-500 miles. Consider if it's time for a replacement.

Squeaking sound when walking

Check if the insole is properly seated. Sometimes, a loose insole or moisture between the insole and sole can cause squeaking. Remove, dry, and reinsert.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14 involves proper initial setup, understanding its suitable uses, and consistent care.

Initial Setup

  1. Lacing: Before your first wear, ensure the shoes are laced evenly and securely. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug fit that is comfortable but not too tight, allowing for natural foot movement. Experiment with different lacing patterns if you experience pressure points.
  2. Break-in Period: While comfortable from the start, allow for a short break-in period of a few wears to fully adapt the shoes to your foot shape.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed for:

  • Running: Ideal for daily training runs, offering cushioning and stability.
  • Walking: Excellent for casual walks or prolonged periods of standing.
  • Casual Wear: Their distinctive style makes them suitable for everyday fashion.

Avoid using them for specialized sports that require different foot support, such as court sports or aggressive trail running.

Product Care

Proper care extends the lifespan and maintains the appearance of your ASICS GEL-KAYANO 14.

  • Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn marks on the mesh or synthetic areas, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as these can damage materials and adhesives.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause materials to warp or crack.
  • Odor Control: After use, remove insoles and allow the shoes to air out. You can use shoe fresheners or stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and odors.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
